Cindy Michaels
and Tony Consiglio, two anchors for ABC 7 in Bangor, Maine, resigned from their positions
on air at the end of last night's 6 o'clock news. One of the reasons for their
departure was political bias by the station's management. Michaels told the Bangor
Daily News “It’s a culmination of ongoing
occurrences that took place the last several years and basically involved upper
management practices that we both strongly disagreed with,” she also stated.
“It’s a little complicated, but we were expected to do somewhat unbalanced
news, politically, in general.”
